Maximum performance

The maximum volume of water that the device can pump in a certain amount of time. It is one of the key specs of any pump because characterizes the volume of water with which the device can work. At the same time, it does not always make sense to pursue maximum performance — after all, it significantly affects the dimensions and weight of the unit.

Some formulas allow you to derive optimal performance values for different situations. So, if the pump is designed to supply water to water intake points, its minimum required performance should not be lower than the highest total flow rate; if desired, a margin of 20-30% can be added to this value. And for sewer models (see "Suitable for"), everything will depend on the volume of wastewater. More detailed recommendations for choosing a pump depending on performance can be found in special sources.

Maximum head

The maximum head generated by the pump. This parameter is most often indicated in meters, by the height of the water column that the unit can create — in other words, by the height to which it can supply water. You can estimate the pressure created by the pump using a simple formula: every 10 m of head corresponds to a pressure of 1 bar.

It is worth choosing a pump according to this parameter, taking into account the height to which it should supply water, as well as adjusting for losses and the need for pressure in the water supply. To do this, it is necessary to determine the difference in height between the water level and the highest point of water intake, add another 10 to 30 m to this figure (depending on the pressure that needs to be obtained in the water supply), and multiply the result by 1.1 — this will be the minimum pressure required.

Minimum liquid level

The smallest depth of pumped liquid (from the bottom to the surface) at which the pump can operate normally. This parameter is indicated for submersible drainage models, for other types it is not relevant for various reasons.

Maximum immersion depth

The maximum depth at which a submersible pump can be placed without the risk of failure or breakdown. It is usually indicated for fresh water, so in fact it is advisable not to lower the pump to the maximum depth level — after all, the density of the pumped liquid may be greater, which will create off-design loads on the structure.

Dry run protection

A system that protects the unit from running without water.

The dry running mode is abnormal for any pump: at best, the mechanism of the unit in this mode experiences increased loads, and at worst, the device may fail and even a serious accident. This feature allows you to prevent such consequences. The specific method of protection against dry running may be different; one of the most popular options is a float switch (see below). However, in addition, flow sensors, pressure or level switches can be used. These details depend both on the general type of pump and on the specific model; they should be specified separately in each case.

Outlet size

The thread size for connecting a hose or pipe to the pump outlet. If there is a branch pipe with an external thread in the design, the size is indicated for it; if not, for the internal thread of the inlet.

Anyway, the dimensions of the pump outlet and the mounts on the hose/pipeline connected to it must match — otherwise, you will have to look for adapters. This size is specified in inches and fractions of an inch.

This parameter is relevant primarily for surface models.
